The MOTD uses the built in HTML VGUI control. I don't remember if we support pointing to an external website for the MOTD (if not we should), but the only way to use PHP is to host your MOTD on a webserver with PHP installed.

A bit more clear to those who don't understand... PHP is 'WEB' server side scripting. The Gmod motd file you view is treated as a client side. All the gmod server does is attempt to feed it to you in raw format. No "real" language parsing is done before it gets fed.
